Feeder or Twister

Watching others track vids, I see lots of different styles of driving.

Do you feed the steering wheel through your hands a la driving school text book technique or do you twist your arms?

I'm a twister.

oddly enough this is something im working on just now, ive always been a feeder ( to a certain extent lol) up to now but have recently just changed my driving style to being a twister, takes a bit of getting used to though especially when you come to a 90 degree turn or roundabout and end up with your arms in knots lol

ive always sat quite close to the wheel and never really felt comfortable using the twister method as i hardly had enough space between my body and the wheel to twist my arms fully, i had to adjust my seat back about two notches moving my whole body back from the wheel so my feet could just fully press the clutch brakes and throttle before i felt comfortable using the twister method, considering ive totally adjusted my driving position from something ive been used to for the last twenty odd years i much prefer this method of driving now, still to test it on track though i think that will be the true test lol
